Fuuse and Drax Take Over 14,000 BP Pulse Fleet Charging Points

BP Pulse’s retreat from workplace charging left nearly 1,000 UK fleet operators wondering what would happen to their installed hardware. The answer arrived this week: Fuuse and Drax Electric Vehicles will handle the migration of more than 14,000 charging sockets.
Under the arrangement, Fuuse becomes the exclusive software migration partner, moving customers onto its charging management platform. Drax Electric Vehicles, meanwhile, handles nationwide maintenance and service — including keeping existing hardware warranties intact.
The core promise is simple: fleets shouldn’t have to rip out working chargers and buy new ones.
A Long Time Coming
BP Pulse first signalled its exit from the workplace charging business back in July 2025, opting to concentrate on charging hubs and its rapid network instead. The transition wasn’t painless. By May 2026, the company was still hunting for a migration partner, and some fleet operators had publicly complained about thin support after the withdrawal.
The Fuuse appointment, at least, wasn’t rushed. It follows more than a year of joint work between the two companies — hardware testing, platform development and a fair amount of groundwork to make sure the handover wouldn’t break anything that was already running.
“Being selected as the exclusive migration partner is a huge endorsement of both our platform and our people.” — James Chapman, strategic sales director at Fuuse
Chapman framed the job as more than a software swap. In his words, it’s about protecting what customers have already paid for and keeping daily operations running — while making a potentially messy change feel routine.
Warranty Continuity Is the Real Prize
For fleet managers, the hardware warranty carries as much weight as the software. Drax Electric Vehicles is leaning on its national field service network to back that up. Adam Hall, the company’s energy services director, said the priority is letting former BP Pulse depot customers move ahead with confidence: maintained equipment, supported equipment, fewer outages.
- Scale: roughly 1,000 fleet customers and over 14,000 charging sockets
- Software: migration to the Fuuse charging management platform
- Service: nationwide maintenance from Drax Electric Vehicles
- Warranties: existing hardware coverage carried over, no forced replacement
How Fleets Get Started
Affected customers don’t need to chase anyone down. BP Pulse has sent notification emails containing a registration link. From there, Fuuse’s onboarding team steps in to check each site’s infrastructure requirements, confirm the service setup and walk operators through the process.
The broader takeaway for the UK depot charging market: as large providers reshuffle their priorities, the installed base of chargers needs a home. Fuuse and Drax are betting that keeping that hardware alive — rather than selling replacements — is the smarter play.
